Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 24

[Chapter 24 The Beast of Darkness (Please support the new book)]

“Let’s leave now and leave here as soon as it gets dark!”

Xiu stood up and paced back and forth uneasily.

The mania on her face scared Lin so much that she almost cried.

“Okay, Aunt Xiu, you take a rest first, and I’ll get something. Don’t leave out today’s portion of food, they will be suspicious.”

Ike nodded and walked out of the hut.

Xiu barely suppressed the rage in his heart and sat cross-legged.

Along with meditation, her breathing gradually calmed down. Looking at Lin, she suddenly felt that this girl was a little different from usual.

“Lin, come here!”

Xiu Zhao waved.

To her surprise, Lin did not come over, but backed away in fear.

Xiu stood up, grabbed Lin with one quick step, and suddenly pulled off her clothes. On the little girl’s pink arm, there was a circle of black tattoos.

“This is…”

Xiu suddenly felt his hair standing on end.

“Wuwu…” Lin burst into tears: “Ike told me that he will definitely become a big shot, and you will be a good firewood… Wuwu…”

“I was careless…”

Xiu was full of heart. Is it regret that she was immersed in the study of the extraordinary path during this period, and completely ignored how Ike, a half-year-old child, would be affected by a group of cultists?

“Damn, he must have gone out to snitch.”

Xiu pulled open the floor, put his backpack on his back, pulled Lin, turned around and ran out of the house.

After leaving the house, her steps became faster and faster, and she soon reached the edge of the town.

On the edge of the town, there are usually patrol teams led by Burning Sons. They have often reached the second stage and have the power to control flames. They are opponents that Xiu does not want to face.

However, if it was a sneak attack, there might still be a chance.

After all, the other party thought she was a church member, and because she intended to escape, she became familiar with the patrol team.

But this time, Xiu was very unlucky.

She saw the Black Sun cultists gathered at the entrance of the town. The leader was the high priest. He also held a child, it was Ike!

Xiu’s heart sank, and he quickly recited a mysterious spell, summoning the black wind that seemed to be alive.

“Are you using the spell I taught you to attack me? Xiu?”

The high priest’s lips moved, and the black wind disappeared.

Xiu’s heart immediately sank.

Aaron watched this scene calmly.

He knew there was nothing he could do about it until he found a way to interfere with the world.

In the end, Xiu was captured without hesitation. After all, she also had Lin with her. If they fought, the girl would be hurt accidentally.

Moreover, in the face of the opponent’s strong strength, resistance is meaningless.

“Tell me, what does firewood mean?”

When he was tied up, Xiu finally couldn’t help but ask.

“You will see it.”

The high priest showed a smile.

Aaron suddenly had a feeling that he was about to come into contact with the core secrets of the Black Sun Church.

…

Two days later, when day and night alternate.

Aaron saw the human pillars tied up one by one in the town square.

Under their feet, there is a ritual that is so complex and exquisite that it looks like a work of art.

“The spiritual numbers and divination are confirmed. Today is the best choice to please my Lord.”

The high priest took off his hood and revealed his head covered with tattoos and incantations: “And you will also become my firewood and appreciate the charm of this high-level ritual together. It is called – solar eclipse!”

Aaron !

Suddenly, I thought of the first sermon of the high priest – “Darkness is a symbol of destruction and sublimation. It can make us immortal. If we want to awaken the spirituality of darkness, we must first burn ourselves, sacrifice our flesh and blood, and transcend the third level. The gate, after undergoing the solar eclipse ceremony, the person who completes it will be eliminated from the body, which is also a great achievement!”

“Now it seems that the three major gates refer to the three stages of the Unburnt, the Burning Son, and the Dark Chaser. Can we perform the solar eclipse ceremony only when we stand at the top of the Dark Chaser?”

Aaron stood in the crowd, quietly watching the high priest show off.

The high priest’s face was slightly flushed, and he was obviously extremely excited: “Mortals will eventually have their limits. After completing the ceremony, I will shed my mortal body, gain a new life form, and get closer to my Lord. I will enter a new stage! Now! , time’s up! “

Bear!

Following the order, the Black Sun cultists on the periphery chanted incantations in unison.

And amid the strange sound of mantras, balls of pitch-black flames suddenly burned on the ritual track, swallowing up the sacrifices one after another.

Xiu even saw Sauron, the betrayer who was once a refuge, also become a ‘firewood’!

He screamed, his body melting like a wax statue.

And in the ritual, traces of inexplicable things seemed to be summoned and attracted by something, and they converged on the high priest.

“Offer everything to the Lord of Eclipse, sublime in the flames, gain the favor of darkness, and become a beast of darkness!”

The high priest roared or shouted, and his body also burned with black flames.

The flames quickly engulfed his body, and in the flames, a brand new form seemed to be gestating…

“Sure enough… the dark spirituality among the Black Sun cultists can be deprived and devoured by each other… That’s why The reason why the high priest keeps recruiting people, preaching, and even teaching without reservation.”

“Their spirituality…are all ‘firewood’, burning sacrifices, and nourishment for the growth of the beast of darkness!

” Sit on the sidelines.

The Black Sun cultists seemed to be used to this scene, and the eyes of several Burning Sons were filled with longing.

They are far more powerful than the Unburnt, but they are not suitable as sacrifices.

“So that’s it…”

Aaron murmured. At this time, the Black Sun Order, in his eyes, had no secrets at all.

In other words, he has understood the highest secret of the Black Sun Order!

“Aunt Xiu!”

Outside the venue, Lin cried, but Ike hugged her tightly and covered her lips.

“Aunt Xiu has gone to a higher realm of light, and she is one step closer to the black sun.”

Ike murmured in Lin’s ear, as if comforting and hypnotically.

When the sun set, all the firewood in the ceremony had been burned, and the black flames gradually extinguished.

raging!

Suddenly, a monster with the body of a dog and the head of a human, its body burning with pitch-black flames, jumped out of the ashes.

It’s the high priest!

He successfully executed the solar eclipse ritual, transformed his life form, and became a beast of darkness!

……

night.

The reveling Black Sun cultists were either partying or falling into a deep sleep.

In Ike’s cabin, the door opened with a creak.

Lin raised her head and looked at the bright starry sky: “Aunt Xiu… Wuwu… I miss you so much, I’m sorry…”

She looked at the crimson moon and recalled the legend of her hometown.

The souls of the dead will rise above the moon and watch everyone in the world.

And the moon tonight seems to be particularly round…

“Mom…”

Lin immediately thought of her mother, and tears burst into her eyes.

She didn’t know if it was an hallucination, but with her eyes blurred by tears, she seemed to see a giant tree made entirely of flesh and blood above the moon…
